The project was completed in December, ahead of schedule. It is the final storm clean-up project for Dougherty County.

Right now, county officials are working to recoup reimbursements.

"It's slow. But, we are persistent. We are working with GEMA as well as FEMA on sometimes a daily, weekly, basis doing all that we can to recover our shared portion of those costs," said Interim Administrator for Dougherty County Michael McCoy.

To date, the county has paid $9,810,654 to Ceres and Tetra Tech.

The county has received roughly half that amount in reimbursements, $4,826,967 as of February 8, 2018.

Typically, FEMA reimburses at a rate of 75 percent, GEMA at 10 percent, with county taxpayers responsible for the remaining costs.
